We dealt with people with love, gentleness, grace and even strong rebuke as needed. We experienced the joy and victories, along with the frustrations that many leaders are facing today. It is a good reminder that there is Grace In Your Place! The Body of Christ is facing one of our greatest opportunities to Stand Up and let our Message and Voices be heard in every sphere of influence! ** I sincerely hope you will read each of the articles and view the videos that we have included in the August 2022 E-Newsletter.

Cynthia A. Burns Who's Child is This? The Importance of Children's Ministry I believe that children are a gift from God. Their #1 teachers are their Mom's & Dad's. School and Church should be a supplement to what their parents are teaching them. If a school or church is teaching them something that goes against their values as Christian parents then they need to get involved by standing up, speaking up and taking appropriate actions CLICK HERE FOR MY THOUGHTS! Partnership is clearly explained in this recent episode of God's Healing Word with Rev. Michael J. Burns. This is our Financial Stewardship Friday program where biblical financial principles are taught. This is a very special message on why MJB Ministries needs your Prayerful & Financial Partnership!

This Month's We Recommend the Book, THE TRANSFORMED LIFE by Pastor John Carter EXPERIENCE THE TRANSFORMED LIFE Personal transformation requires radical change. It has been said that the only thing you can count on in this world is that nothing stays the same. You can change your address, your job, your wardrobe, your friends—you can even change your name—BUT your life will not transform until you change the way you think. Becoming a Christian ignites the process of transformation. Your relationship with God, eternal destination, and true self become new. Yet even with all these wonderful changes, we are left in a world, remain in a body, and are stuck with a mind that is pretty much the same. In this book, John Carter will teach you that God has designed a plan of genuine transformation for every person, one that goes far beyond the initial moment of salvation. Whether you realize it or not, you have the capacity and power to influence the direction of your life through a dynamic relationship with Jesus Christ. YOU CAN CHANGE. HERE’S HOW. Click Here to Order! Quotes...On the Local Church “I have never known the Spirit of God to work where the Lord’s people were divided.” — Dwight L. Moody "The life function of [the local church] is to love the God who created it – to care for others out of obedience to Christ, to heal those who hurt, to take away fear, to restore community, to belong to one another, to proclaim the Good News while living it out. The church is the invisible made visible." ― Charles Colson "Jesus is the hope of the world and the local church is the vehicle of expressing that hope to the world." ― Andy Stanley "Being disconnected from the local church, for whatever reason, is a dangerous way to live. Not only do these “ lone rangers” miss out on the blessings of functioning within the context of the body of Christ, but like lone sheep away from the safety of the flock and the watchful care of the shepherd, they are vulnerable to predators of every sort." ― Nancy Leigh DeMoss "God has not planned on His children to bounce around from local church to local church. We are blood bought believer's in Christ and have not been designed to be spiritual blood clots in the body of Christ that causes damage every where we go!" ― Michael J. Burns, MJB Ministries "The Christian life is not just our own private affair. If we have been born again into God's family, not only has he become our Father but every other Christian believer in the world, whatever his nation or denomination, has become our brother or sister in Christ. But it is no good supposing that membership of the universal Church of Christ is enough; we must belong to some local branch of it. Every Christian's place is in a local church. sharing in its worship, its fellowship, and its witness." ― John Stott "Nothing on earth has greater potential to change lives and carry out His kingdom work in your community, than your local church.There's nothing like the local church when it's working right. Its beauty is indescribable. Its power is breathtaking. Its potential is unlimited. No other organization on earth is like the church. Nothing even comes close." ― Bill Hybels "Prayer is the Power Plant of the Church!" ― Pastor Kenneth W. Hagin
